Hobbies and Crafts

Hi Anne, I will have a look, do you mean the one in Southgate St?

My programme has arrived but I want to save it until Thursday, my birthday, I don't like to have presents before the day!! Anyway we were away and now have daughter and SiL for the weekend so no opportunity. Hope all is OK with you.

Hello Ann

In case you don't know the 99p shop in gloucester has enbelshaments(? spelling) They are on a turn around card stand in the middle of the shop.I have no idea if they are good value as I am not into scrapbooking. I like the idea but havent got round to it yet.

Has you photo suite arrived yet. Have you had chance to play with it?

Anne

ooh Ninja lady that sounds scary. I don't do 'fast'. Glad you enjoyed it though, any photos taken of you? You should always scrap yourself!!!!

Glad to hear you enjoyed yourself, Ann and managed to find a craft shop as well!!

Not going to get much scrapping done this weekend as I have my little grandson overnight tonight and most of the day tomorrow. Although we are taking him shopping in Newbury and there is a nice little craft shop there....... I have taken some lovely photos of him just learning to crawl so there will be some nice pages from those photos.

Plus I went with son number 3 today to take photos of his driving experience in a Dodge Viper supercar we bought him for his 21st birthday last month. Hopefully there will be some great pages from those photos too. And we're back to the race track on Tuesday for an Aston Martin V8 Vantage driving experience morning for him so even more photos!!

Mind you, today did prove there's still life left in this granny. Son paid for me to have a ride round the track in a Mazda supercar - that's the fastest 2.4 miles I've ever done in my life, mainly sideways round the race track, and I loved every minute of it!!

Hello all, back home from Exmouth and catching up with this thread, sounds like you have all been busy, shopping if not scrapping. I found a lovely little craft shop in Exmouth, an independent one that has won craft shop of the year for 4 years running. Punches were 10% off this week so I bought two, then they had different peel offs, some nice 12x12 paper, and several other bits I needed (wanted??) so I was happy with my trip away. No doubt there are a couple of pages among the photos I took so will have to sort that out. Got daughter and OH this weekend so wont get much done. Although they are off out for the day tomorrow so....maybe!!!!

Hi Jean

Nothing's come through yet - I'll check again in the morning.

Thank you Jean - I'll check my messages shortly and have a look!!!

What's everyone else up to then?

Ninja Lady, just mailed new pages to you...

Glad to hear your charity event went so well, Sarah.

I'll have a look at that site Havoc.

Had some lovely retail therapy today in my local craft shop with a friend. She's starting out with Pergamano and I haven't a clue about that so I took her to the experts!!!

So, while she was asking questions I just had to browse the scrapbook papers and I've found some lovely ones for a small book I want to do for my grandmother's photos. I've got some lovely hand-tinted ones of her back in the mid 1930's.

Hello All,
I thought i'd mention that there is a site, craftsforum.co.uk, that have a scrapbooking page and loads of other crafts as well, you can also add photos and put photos into an album on there of your craft work , I have one on there with some of the cards I have made.
It's a great site as well for help and also for chatting about allsorts.
Take a look .
